Training Programmes

Our courses are designed to build comprehensive PostgreSQL expertise through structured learning paths that combine theoretical depth with practical application.

PostgreSQL Fundamentals

Price: £495

This foundational course establishes the core knowledge required for working effectively with PostgreSQL. You will learn SQL syntax, data types, basic queries, table design, constraints, and fundamental database operations.

Topics include creating and managing databases, understanding ACID properties, working with transactions, implementing basic indexing strategies, and using PostgreSQL-specific features like arrays and JSON data types.

Ideal for developers new to PostgreSQL or those transitioning from other database systems who need a solid grounding in PostgreSQL-specific approaches.

Advanced Query Optimization

Price: £745

Learn to write queries that perform efficiently even as data volumes grow. This course covers query execution plans, cost estimation, join strategies, index selection, and techniques for identifying performance bottlenecks.

You will analyze real-world query problems, understand when and how different index types improve performance, optimize complex joins and subqueries, and develop skills for troubleshooting slow queries.

Designed for developers who work with substantial datasets and need to ensure their applications remain responsive under production load.

Database Administration

Price: £895

Comprehensive training in managing PostgreSQL in production environments. Topics include backup and recovery strategies, replication configuration, monitoring and alerting, security best practices, and routine maintenance procedures.

You will learn to implement automated backup systems, configure streaming replication, manage user permissions and roles, perform version upgrades, and handle common operational challenges.

Essential for anyone responsible for keeping PostgreSQL systems running reliably in business-critical applications.

Performance Tuning

Price: £645

Focus on optimizing PostgreSQL configuration and system resources for maximum performance. Learn to adjust memory settings, configure connection pooling, tune autovacuum, optimize disk I/O, and implement effective monitoring.

This course addresses the gap between default configurations and production-optimized settings, teaching you how to identify resource constraints and adjust parameters based on workload characteristics.

Valuable for engineers who need to extract maximum performance from their database infrastructure.

Data Modeling & Design

Price: £695

Master the art of designing database schemas that support both current requirements and future growth. Topics include normalization principles, relationship modeling, choosing appropriate data types, and architectural patterns for different use cases.

You will learn to evaluate tradeoffs between normalization and denormalization, design for query patterns, implement effective partitioning strategies, and create schemas that remain maintainable as applications evolve.

Critical for architects and senior developers who design data structures that other systems depend on.
